The #1 way to maximize the energy production of your solar panels is to keep them clean. Dust, dirt, pollen, bird droppings, and other debris can negatively affect solar production by blocking the light required to generate electricity from the sun.
A recent study found that rain is not a satisfying way of cleaning solar panels. On average, solar panels that were cleaned professionally had a 12%-25% higher output of electricity compared to those cleaned by rain.
We recommend cleaning your solar panels once every six months. Cleaning at regular intervals prevents the buildup of residue and always keeps your panels operating optimally.
